A Comparative Trial of Improving Care for Underserved Asian Americans Infected With HBV

Eligible patients received patient navigator led plus mobile phone text messaging intervention (PNMI) or standard care. Bilingually trained patient navigators were recruited from our existing patient navigator training network, received intensive training on HBV prevention, diagnosis and treatment management, and served as a liaison with respective clinical partners. The PNMI intervention offered three education sessions on HBV management and weekly CHB patient-designed educational phone-based text messages for five weeks.
